mousetraps are good (marmite or vegimite and cheese on toast) , most children wil eat them cold too , dried fruit , Yougurt covered raisins, raisin toast (hot or cold with a bit of butter), snack size vegie sushi is good too (my dd LOVES sushi, ) rice crackers and hummis, I guess it all depends on what she eats ------------- http://lilypie.com">

My daughter is a fussy eater, but she loves cucumber and capsicum (raw).
Some childrn love cherry tomatoes. (DD loves pulling them of the plnts, but refuses to eat them  )

If she's being fussy you could try involving her in making things? I bake a lot with my son which he loves, things like scones, muffins and pikelets mainly. And he loves pushing the button on the microwave to make the popcorn pop 
I know a friend of mine uses cookie cutters to make different shaped sandwiches because her son won't eat them otherwise lol. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

mmmmm yogurt raisins!
Sometimes if i have time i thread the popcorn with a needle so it is like a popcorn necklace - good for the car as they don't just tip it everywhere. Rice cakes are the big favourite here and tiny teddies for a bit of a treat. Corn chips - the Dorritos plain flavour are sooooo yummy and not overpowering like most other corn chips. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

We do lots of yummy fruit like blueberries, grapes and pineapple.
Or like others have suggested different crackers (loves those mini mealmates), mini rice crackers, mini muffins, pikelets, fruit bread,raisins, cheese. Those little bamino pasta pieces can make good snacks too. ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">
